Demonic Voices

[lanaia74]

I hear the voices laughing and jeering at me

Taunting me, making such fun of me

They are the demons of my mind and soul

Why can't these lurid ghosts set me free?

Possessing my very soul, they mock me

Driving me to do things I wouldn't even speak of

If only from them I could flee

Flying away on the wings of a dove.

They try to convince me of everything untrue

Awful things, evil things, things I would never think

Constantly hearing them for peace I yearn

They make the very essence of my soul burn.

Feeling as if they deplete all the energy from my core

Fighting them virtually impossible because I feel so weak

Controlling my every move hoping I'd make the wrong choice, if I dare

People say get help but what kind of help should I seek?

Seeking a cure didn't ever work

They would just talk louder to be heard

In the midst of my mind I think they will always be

I want them to leave and no longer lurk.
